Very professional, knowledgeable in his scope of practice.
Writing as a retired physician. Had one encounter with him when my elderly father was admitted to the hospital and the hospitalist called Dr A as a consultant. He ordered multiple antibiotics that were totally not indicated. When I questioned that he stated "the patient is septic, and if not, will be". He further stated that EVERY patient with a bowel obstruction needs antibiotics. WRONG. He also billed for a much more comprehensive exam than he actually performed. Stay away from him.
So rude, disrespectful, unprofessional. He has absolutely the worst bed side mannor. He should not be a doctor.
